AIBU? Does anyone elses DH do this?!

My lovely, charming DH seems to spend a large proportion of his time with a hand down the front his trousers (his hand, not like a plastic mannequin one or anything. That would add a whole new dimension to the problem).

When I point this out, his defence is that he has an itch or is "rearranging" but unless he has crotch fleas (he doesn't) surely he can't itch that much and he is averagely size (or if he is reading - bloody massive, so huge!) so rearranging seems...unusual.

It's starting to get right on my wick that he's always at his "wick" (see what i did there?). It's mostly in private but he does it without thinking sometimes in public and when we're with people and I'm sure other people see.
He gets cross and says "If i can't do what I want in the privacy of my own home...blah blah"
but AIBU to find it disgusting?!

Well. I realised I regularly put my hand down my top and hold the side of my left breast while watching telly. I do. It's comforting.
And I sometimes sit with my hand in the front of my waistband. I might give my pubes a little scratch while I am there.Grin
If I lived with a man I might not do it I would.

Mine does it and it drives me mad. He doesn't know he's doing it apparently. I tell him to pack it in. It's like me lying on settee with my hand in my knIckers. :o

Yep, mine does all the time. All the fucking time. Drives me mental. He even does it when we have company, because it is so second nature to him, he doesn't realise he's doing it.

I get very arsey with him now and again. It's not a comfort thing, sometimes he does it for arousal purposes Shock. Usually when a weathergirl he likes is on the telly.

Hackles rising at the thought.

oh yes, and I don't need to wonder whether he's done it if I am not in the room, as his hands smell bollocky. Gross.
